Altec technical service bulletin SIL 751 for 2018 Altec Drm12 Wood Chipper.
- Bulletin number
- SIL 751
- Component
- Fuel system, gasoline
- Summary
- Altec has discovered that some of the fuel hoses used on chipper engines do not meet the proper specifications. While the fuel hose is not a safety concern, the hose does not meet the EPA permeation requirements per 40 CFR 1048.105. It is extremely important for the correct fuel line to be installed to minimize emissions to the atmosphere from vapor permeation through the body of the fuel line. Understanding the importance of this regulatory requirement, Altec and its customers will make a concerted effort to repair the units in a timely manner. Altec requires that the fuel lines on each unit be inspected for the correct type. The inspection must be completed at the next periodic maintenance interval but no later than 90 days after the receipt of this SIL.
